Boy Issues (Command & Care, #1)Boy Issues by Morticia Knight
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There is a lot emotion packed in this story. Silver has just the right skills to help Donavan be his best self. I like the dynamic that with just a bit of care makes Donavan a stronger man. I also like how the younger man is the dominate. I listened to the audio and it was well done.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This story starts with an action scene. We see the reconnection of two people which leads to the discovery that something is off. There are some dangerous situations until everything comes to HEA. This was a quick listen. It is a well told story. I found the audio easy to listen too.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a great story where an established couple who are clearly very much in love can still have some surprises. They find out there are more ways to explore a relationship. Jonah has to overcome his fear and be totally honest. But I love the way Lars shows his love and commitment to Jonah and their marriage.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This story shows the way both main characters are trying to move forward. Ty has things to prove especially to himself. Emmett’s struggle is more about speaking his truth. There are times when things don’t run smoothly but in the end love does conquer all. The audio was enjoyable to listen too.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed getting to meet Porter Sunday. Since he was away at college you really didn’t get to know him in the previous books. I think Theo was thrown off by his feelings and frustrated that Porter wasn’t listening. Once they really started talking things started to improve. Love the wonderful way Theo and Porter’s lives come together. The audio version is really well done.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book has a story within a story. You have Tanner and Cole who seem an unlikely couple yet they are drawn to each other. Then there is the mystery of what happened 70 year ago. The now and the present seem to be intertwined. There are some dramatic moments past and present. I don’t want to say more and give anything away. Just know that this is powerful story. The audio was very well done and really drew me in.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I bought this book at a convention on whim because of the title as I’m planning a trip to Seattle later this year. I wasn’t expecting so much deep emotional moments. We see Justice’s struggle with his mental health issues. We also get a peek at Nic’s baggage. This story does give you a HEA but it is hard fought and not at all a direct path. There are other emotional surprises as well. I’m so glad I gave this book a try.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Two young men figured out that their wants and needs match up perfectly. I like the fact that Kyle didn’t take advantage of Nick. It was interesting to see how each one find ways to support the other.

Mason and Fin just seem to rub each other the wrong way. Yet there seems to be something there. The rest of the story is full of the ups and downs of their relationship. Meanwhile, Mayor Rafe is trying to bring the Key back to life. A great moment of action leads to a very satisfying ending. The audio was well done.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This story was a slow build until thing really start to come together. Auden and Keaton’s experiences with their ex’s and those relationships effect everything. I really love the epilogue. It was a great wrap up for the story. I enjoyed listening to the audio.

I just loved Nathan and his lack of a filter. It was fun that a few mumbled words in sleep become such a wonderful start. Both of these men were ready to move forward. I enjoyed the audio version very much.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I loved the humor in each fake boyfriend being interested in the other person. I found it interesting to really see Brooks grow through the story. We also got to see Mal work through his past. This story has a great ending. The audio was fun to listen to.
